In Teaching with Heart: Poetry that Speaks to the Courage to Teach a diverse group of ninety teachers describe the complex of emotions and experiences of the teaching life – joy, outrage, heartbreak, hope, commitment and dedication. Each heartfelt commentary is paired with a cherished poem selected by the teacher. The contributors represent a broad array of educators: K-12 teachers, principals, superintendents, college professors, as well as many non-traditional teachers. They range from first year teachers to mid-career veterans to those who have retired after decades in the classroom. They come from inner-city, suburban, charter and private schools.

The book also includes a poignant Foreword by Parker J. Palmer (The Courage to Teach), a stirring Introduction by Taylor Mali (What Teachers Make), and a moving Afterword by Sarah Brown Wessling (Teaching Channel).

Being a plus-sized woman, her husband constantly reminds her of her weight issues with his cruel nicknames and insults. As Gabrielle tries to lose weight to appease her husband, she begins to realize that her mental health is what’s more important. Principal Alexander is the head of the school where Gabrielle teaches, and he’s had a crush on her for a while. He has an inclination for thick women because of his southern roots, and he feels that it’s time that he applies a little pressure to see if he can turn the head of the Family And Consumer Science (FACS) teacher that’s got his eye. He begins to flirt with Gabrielle and soon becomes her workout partner, which helps to boost Gabrielle’s confidence. This draws them closer and begins to make Gabrielle question her faithfulness towards her husband. Graham notices a change in his wife and begins to wonder what this will mean to their marriage. Is what’s good for the goose also good for the gander? The Spirit Bohannon Story by Alexus Dominique At the tender age of 16, Spirit Bohannon has a lot resting on her shoulders. Coming from a rather large family, she has to carry her own weight to help her parents get the bills paid on time. The fear of possibly losing her sanity behind all of the bills piling up runs her into the arms of Saieed "Fendi" Morris, a self-paid, 22-year-old who promises her the finer things in life. Spirit is all in. Being so financially stable, Fendi gave Spirit just what she'd been praying for: financial comfort. She was able to live carefree. She didn't have to worry about the stress of struggling to pay bills. Spirit would do anything not to go back to the struggle. That is, until Fendi's sweet love turns cold and his kisses turn into blows. There comes a point when Spirit has to make a choice between having the desires of her heart and having her life. Come along for this very dangerous and emotional ride as Spirit's life shifts what seems to be overnight. Watch as she learns that more money really does bring more problems.
